A young man dressed in gray-white civilian clothes is calling out.
Suddenly, a cloud of yellow sand swept across the sky, and the people around gradually dispersed.
Holy crap!
"What kind of godforsaken place is this to sell candied hawthorns?!"
In a fit of rage, Lin Ye overturned the counter, scattering candied hawthorns all over the floor, covered in sand and dirt.
The next second, he picked it up again, and while no one was watching, he used his chakra to create a small water ball and cleaned it.
"Hehe! It can still be sold!"
"How can I get close to Gaara?"
Lin Ye sat on the bench, lost in thought.
Two days ago, he came to Sunagakure Village with a caravan.
The guard at the gate asked him why he had come here.
Lin Ye quickly made up an excuse, saying that there was a lot of gold here and he had come to pan for gold.
After paying a considerable sum of money and undergoing a search, he finally obtained the right to reside.
Once we get into the village, things will be much easier.
It's nothing more than luring Gaara, the Jinchuriki of the One-Tailed Beast, over there, then revealing his identity as the Sage of Six Paths, and subduing the One-Tailed Beast with his domineering aura.
So, Lin Ye chose candied hawthorn, which is a favorite among children.
But as a result, two days have passed, and not only have I not seen Gaara, but I haven't even seen a single child.
The reason is that in Sunagakure, the sandstorms are strong during the day, so usually only adults go out.
At dusk, although the sand and dust only drifted through the streets and alleys, there were still very few people around.
At night, the entire village is deserted, with only a few scattered lights from countless homes, creating a desolate and eerie atmosphere.
"Or should I just use the Flying Thunder God Technique to kidnap Gaara?"
Lin Ye muttered to himself, then shook his head.
"No, what if the Fourth Kazekage comes out to defend us, and I accidentally kill him? Wouldn't that cause internal strife in Sunagakure?"
"Forget it, let's wait two more days! And make a few more Flying Thunder God marks while we're at it."
...
Time passed, and before we knew it, dusk had fallen, and the sky gradually darkened.
There were more pedestrians on the road.
Lin Ye's rented shop was not big, about 20 square meters, with only a bed, a counter, and two stools.
However, for just this little thing, it cost him a full five thousand taels of silver; that's really outrageous.
......
The next day, Lin Ye continued his stakeout.
"Selling candied hawthorns! Even if they're not tasty, you still have to pay!"
After shouting for a while, Lin Ye lay down on the chair and closed his eyes.
"Uncle, what is candied hawthorn?"
Just then, two children walked over, a boy and a girl.
The girl had short blonde hair tied up in four pineapple buns, while the boy was just average-looking.
Lin Ye looked over and his eyes lit up.
"Isn't that Gaara's older sister Temari? And his older brother Kankuro too?"
At this time, Kankuro was still a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur) teenager, and his face was not painted.
Lin Ye picked up one and placed it in front of the two of them, saying, "Look, this is made from hawthorn and rock sugar."
How much is one?
The girl blinked her eyes, her gaze filled with anticipation.
"One hundred taels for one!"
"Sister, I think we should forget about it. It's too expensive. What if it doesn't taste good?"
Kankuro, who was standing nearby, offered a reminder.
"Even if it doesn't taste good, you still have to pay!"
Lin Ye glanced at him casually, thinking to himself, "The rent in Sunagakure is really too high. We have to squeeze some money out of you guys."
"Uncle, I want one!"
The girl made up her mind and took out a 100-tael coin from her pocket.
Of course, this money is for the exclusive use of the Land of Wind, and the exchange rate is similar to that of the Land of Fire.
Lin Ye had exchanged the money beforehand.
"for you!"
"Tsk tsk~"
Wow! It's delicious, both sour and sweet!
Little Temari exclaimed in admiration, smiling happily.
Kankuro, standing to the side, was drooling: "Give me one too."
"Give me the money!"
"Hahahahaha!"
"Waaah..."
"Little brother, why are you crying?" she asked curiously while eating.
"This taste reminds me of my mother!"
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, and he kept wiping them away with his sleeve.
Lin Ye rolled his eyes, a sudden idea popping into his head: "By the way, do you have a younger brother? If so, let him come too, and I'll give you a 20% discount."
"Really?"
Little Temari was very excited, but the next second, her face fell: "Uncle, my little brother is sick and can't come."
"Oh my, what a coincidence! Uncle happens to know how to treat illnesses."
"Sister, don't believe him. I feel like he's a liar who only deceives us kids."
"You little rascal, when did I lie to you? Aren't candied hawthorns delicious?"
Lin Ye bared his teeth and brandished his claws, threateningly.
"I'm sorry, my brother didn't mean it."
"Forget it, I'm magnanimous and won't hold a grudge. If you don't believe me, time will tell."
"Goodbye, Uncle. By the way, you'd better not go out at night."
"why?"
"Monsters will appear, they're terrifying, and they'll eat people!"
Temari's body trembled slightly, revealing a frightened expression.
"Could it be a One-Tailed Beast?"
Lin Ye thought to himself, then nodded: "Okay, I'll remember."
...
"Hey! I'm thirsty. I'll go home and get some water first, then come back tonight."
After saying that, Lin Ye closed the door tightly and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"call!"
The next second, he appeared in his own bedroom, panting heavily.
Because the distance was so great, even with the Nine-Tails' chakra, he still felt exhausted.
"Kushina, I'm back!"
"You...how come you're back so soon?"
At this moment, Kushina Uzumaki was sitting on the sofa, holding a roast chicken in her left hand, a pig's trotter in her right hand, and a large pork knuckle in her mouth.
Upon seeing Lin Ye, he was stunned and his face instantly turned red.
Holy crap!
Are you a complete idiot?
Chapter 91 I'm a little dizzy
"I......"
She hesitated, her face flushed so red it looked like it could bleed.
I'm so ashamed I can't face anyone.
"Kushina, you said before that you didn't want me to leave, how come you're eating so happily after only a few days?"
A distinct smile played at the corners of his mouth.
The next second, he suddenly realized: "Did you guess that I was coming back today and prepared this especially for me?"
"Yes, that's right, that's exactly it."
After saying that, Kushina Uzumaki handed over the pig's trotters and roast chicken she was holding. However, there seemed to be a hint of reluctance on her face.
"Bring it to you!"
Lin Ye took it, not forgetting to snatch the large pork knuckle from her mouth.
